Movie 43 (2013)

Movie 43 Synopsis

From the twisted minds of producers Peter Farrelly (Hall Pass, Shallow Hal) and Charles Wessler (There’s Something About Mary, Dumb & Dumber), comes Movie 43-- the outrageous new ensemble comedy starring some of the biggest names in Hollywood. Movie 43 is not for the easily-offended and contains jaw-dropping, sometimes shockingly disturbing, but always entertaining intertwined storylines you’ll have to see to believe.

The Razzies might as well be called the Easy Target Awards. Any time a Kardashian wins something, you are just begging for a headline, and not really commenting on the craft – or lack thereof – associated with the art of movie making. T

With so many titles to choose from, Netflix Instant's library can be overwhelming. So we offer this biweekly column as a tool to cut through the clutter by highlighting some now streaming titles that pair nicely with the latest theatrical releases.

It was a lame weekend for audiences as Hollywood unloaded three major stinkers into theaters. All three newcomers bombed with critics and they could barely score a positive rating at Rotten Tomatoes if you added all three of their percentages together. All three movies dodged critics by not holding review screenings, a bad start for a less than promising weekend.

With so much top-rate talent, you might think this comedy is destined to be a classic. However, there are some worrisome signs. For instance, its producer Peter Farrelly has revealed that the cast signed on not so much because of a great script but because Farrelly and his fellow producers were dogged in their pursuit of them.

The bottom line on Movie 43 is that you will not find a higher-profile gathering of celebrities. The cast list reads like the red-carpet RSVP list at the Oscars, from Hugh Jackman and Seth MacFarlane to Kate Winslet and Naomi Watts. And they all seem eager to let down their proverbial hair and have some grotesque fun.

The winter movie season is picking up steam. (One thing I love about writing this column is I can always start off with the (fill in the blank) movie season and be somewhat correct. Just another reason movies are the gift that keeps giving.) This week we’ve got some kids hunting for witches, ensemble casts and Statham just kind of doing the same thing he always does

Six degrees of separation is a game that every movie buff knows. Whether you're playing by yourself or with a bunch of people, there's no better or more fun way to test film knowledge. But every expert player knows that there are some titles that make the game a hell of a lot easier, namely ensembles. The bigger the cast of a film has, the more options it delivers - which means that Movie 43 will be a favorite for players for years to come.

The marketing team for Movie 43 has a unique hurdle in trying to sell a hard-R comedy on American TV, where cursing, nudity and crudity are expressively forbidden. So you get the spot below, that's too hot for TV, and NFSW obviously, but perfect for the internet.

When you've made a big movie starring a lot of very famous people, and you want to advertise the fact that those famous people are in fact in your movie, you don't have a whole lot of options. Movie posters for ensemble films range from the serviceable to the horrific, with floating heads of smiling faces colliding into each other

Much like the comedy omnibuses that came before it - films like Kentucky Fried Movie and The Underground Comedy Movie - Movie 43 is best sold with its R-rated gags. Thus, green band trailers aren't going to do much to promote it. Fortunately, the internet allows us to see all kinds of restricted material at any time, so we now have a brand new red band preview for the Peter Farrelly-produced project.

Gerard Butler was a strange casting choice for the upcoming comedy omnibus film Movie 43. While the actor does have plenty of experience working with lighter fare, starring in movies such as The Bounty Hunter, The Ugly Truth, How To Train Your Dragon, it's more about the fact that he was born and raised in Paisley, Scotland...

Made in the spirit of projects like The Kentucky Fried Movie and The Underground Comedy Movie, the upcoming raunch comedy Movie 43 exists solely to try and gross out and offend the audience with off-color gags, R-rated stunts, and recognizable faces. The Red Band trailer that was released earlier this month advertised the film's raison d'etre well, taking advantage of the fact that people under 18 couldn't watch it (not really, but that's the theory).

Over the years we've seen romantic omnibus films like Love Actually, city-based omnibus films like Paris Je T'aime, and horror omnibus films like Creepshow, but now Hollywood is getting together to bring you the new comedy omnibus film Movie 43. Featuring an all-star cast and directors like James Gunn, Bob Odenkirk, Steve Carr, Elizabeth Banks, Peter Farrelly and more...

With a massive cast of A-list talent, 15 writers and a handful of directors that include Brett Ratner, Bob Odenkirk, James Gunn and Peter Farrelly, the omnibus comedy Movie 43 is a feature that's sort of hard to explain. Constructed from a bunch of comedic bits, the film aims to interweave stories that each harbor their own distinct sense of humor. But details on their arcs have been sparse until now.

Bringing in a ridiculous line-up of talent for comedy segments directed by folks like Bob Odenkirk, Brett Ratner, James Gunn, Elizabeth Banks, and the Farrelly Bros. In a new interview, actress Leslie Bibb spilled some details the Farrellys’ segment, which spoofs some of the most iconic characters in pop culture history: DC Comics’ superheroes.
